Suggest Treatment To Reduce Stomach Fat Of A 6 Year Old
My 6 year old granddaughter has a huge stomach. She is 45 inches and weighs 58 pounds. She is very solid and doesn't look heavy other than the stomach. My son and daughter-law haven't addressed the issue with her doctor. She has always had a tummy from birth but now it is really large. She is aware of it and doesn't like it.
